(PLATO) (No Options)

Answer 1

Answer:

In addition to adjusting the schedule, Ben can adjust the __project team_____. For example, Ben can hire people on contract to reduce costs.

Explanation:

To reduce project costs, Ben can find cheaper resources to manage the project.  Cheaper resources have their costs, though.  Profit expectation from the project can also be reduced to accommodate more costs.  Employing contract team for the project is another way of reducing the costs.  Lack of commitment by the temporary workers needs to be taken into consideration when hiring people on a contract basis.  The project's scope contributes to its costs.  Therefore, Ben can reduce the scope as part of the efforts to minimize the project's costs.
